The quality of orange juice processed by coupling crossflow microfiltration and osmotic evaporation

Crossflow microfiltration (CFM) and osmotic evaporation (OE) were implemented on a semi-industrial pilot scale to obtain clarified orange juice concentrates at 450 and 620 g kg-1 of total soluble solids. The characteristics of the juice were then assessed and compared with fresh juice and commercial concentrates. With CFM, most aroma compounds and vitamin C remained in the permeate while the more apoiar compounds such as terpenic hydrocarbons and carotenoids were strongly retained by the membrane. With OE, significant losses of vitamin C and aroma compounds occurred at first, with losses progressively decreasing during treatment. Pre-conditioning the membrane and cold regeneration of the brine reduced losses drastically, with the aroma composition tending towards that of the initial juice. The quality of pulp, a blend of the CFM retentate and OE concentrate, was high and much closer to that of the initial fresh juice than to the commercial thermal concentrate.
